Bufo Marinus Cane Toad Skin Taxidermy Dyed Craft Leather Purple

Description

Genuine
Bufo Marinus Cane Toad Skin
Dyed Leather
Toad leather first caught the public eye when Prince Charles was presented with a cane toad leather bound book by the Premier of Queensland.
The cane toad was introduced to Australia in 1935 from Hawaii to help combat the sugar cane beetle population.
It has since over-populated and is now considered a major pest. Leather production helps to keep the population in check.
Professionally tanned and dyed Bufo marinus toad skin.
The glazing process allows the subtle natural textures to show though.
Great for leather crafts.
Measurement is a rectangle from within the nail holes to the cloaca. Actual skin will be larger.
Sizes range from 5.5" to 6" on
average.
Measurement: 5" x 3"
You will receive a skin similar to photo.
Please remember that dye lots will change, so order sufficient quantities to complete your project.
Although we have made every effort to display our products and their colors as accurately as possible, the displayed colors of the items will depend primarily upon the monitor of your computer or the screen of your device.
Additional colors and sizes are available on our website.
There are tiny holes around the perimeter due to stretching during the tanning process.
There may also be a cloaca hole, which is naturally occurring.
